Proposed Q&A site for application/Software developers using the Swift language looking for some help, guidance, partners or anything else swift related.
Okay, so I play Minecraft on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 4. (I play Minecraft Pocket Edition.) Recently, the new update for 1.0 came out on Google Play Store. Me and my sister tried updating, but it says we both don't have enough space.
We only have 2 games on our tablets each, and a bunch of spa...
@GnomeSlice it's embarrassing for the president elect of the united states of america to tweet about an actress calling him out on being a shitty person
That message there is perfectly okay, ain't nothing wrong with it
Let's read that "be nice" policy:
Whether you've come to ask questions, or to generously share what you know, remember that we’re all here to learn, together. Be
welcoming and patient, especially with those who may not know everything you do. Oh, and bring your
sense of humor. Just in case.
...
Specifically the "predictably stupid part"
also not callin gyou out or anything @Yuuki, but it was just the most at hand example for a thing I've been meaning to mention
We've all been saying stuff like that for months, myself and many other mods are included in that list
buuuuuut calling Trump "Stupid" or an "idiot", or saying the same things about his voters, is the kind of thing we need to stop
but back to SUPER SERIOUS BUT MORE SO CASUAL FRIENDLY
No matter how true we might all think "Trump is stupid is", it doesn't mean it's fine for us to say it. Same goes for his supporters. BEcause...well, if you guys all started calling me stupid, even if you thought I was, that doesn't suddenly mean it's okay
and yeah yeah once again, I know, the mods have been guilty of this too (myself included), but we all need to make a collective effort to stop. We can still talk about politics and all that, and post links to stuff going, but we need to be nicer / more careful with how we talk about it
This... really isn't a good time for that @Jolenealaska, trying to address chat for a minute here
I mean that's pretty much all I had to say. Just keep in mind going forward that "be nice" applies to Trump and his supporters too. I mean we never really know whose lurking in chat here, and we want this place to feel welcoming. P
Actually, that's a pretty good illustration of why care needs to be taken - because different people see the same message in different lights. If you're going to be mostly inoffensive to at least the majority of people, you need to take viewpoints into account.
@KevinvanderVelden I agree 110%, and if someone comes in and starts talking about how great the KKK is please, let me know, because I'll quite happily kick'em out of chat
If the KKK turn up here and start having a reasoned political discussion, they're entirely welcome to do so. It's only if they start on the hate that they can leave.
@KevinvanderVelden If someone comes strolling into chat talking about how great white supremacy is just set them to ignore and flag'em. I'll happily come down with my hammer OF GREAT JUSTICE.

As an addendum - when we ask for stuff like this, making hyperbolic jokes about things that need to be flagged or whatever, is not constructive.
@Wipqozn I can politely say that kind of thing isn't welcome here though, assuming no mods immediately rush in after the flagging (which I do find unlikely)
We're basically just looking for constructive discourse. I know it can feel difficult because of feelings because this stuff directly affects people's lives and livelihoods. We just want to try to make things a little more welcoming, I guess is the way to say it.
I kinda wanna do a summer Bridge movie series where I personally pick a number of movies and put them all up one after the other over the course of a weekend.
Thoughts?
So like a summer marathon of "Movies That @Yuuki Liked In <Insert Year>".
I really like Bridge and don't really get annoyed by any kind of discussion here, but tbh anytime politics are brought up, bridge turns into a shitshow, which is not fun to read or be a part of. I think that keeping politics out of bridge, at least for some time, is the path we should follow.
user15026
And yes, please flag the things. Also, anyone who gets flagged, try to take it how it is meant. It's more meant to be a half hour to think about perhaps taking a different approach to things. It's not a reflection on your worth as a human and it isnt meant as an unending hatred of you or your presence here. It's more that it should be a clear indication that you should adjust behavior.

@arda Banning a subject broadly like that is tricky. How do you draw the line? What does keeping politics out look like?
@Ash You need to team up with @murgatroid99 and @StrixVaria and finalize the @Ash Overmind-Google takeover of the world and then we can all move to the Bridge.
I want to farm witches because of the resources they provide when killing them. I've watched lot of tutorials on how to farm them but all of them involve using a witch hut that is generated by the world in a swamp. I've tested this in a new creative world and worked as expected. Now I want to do ...
@Ash I can just imagine the history books now. "The Imperium of @Ash-Google was established in 2017 when some users in a random Internet chatroom decided to take over the world so they could all live together, play games, and watch the occasional movie."
If it's too much of a mouthful, we can just call it "@Ashoogle".
@KevinvanderVelden @Shog... SEE?! I TOLD YOU GUYS THAT ALL MODS ARE ASSIMILATED INTO @ASH UPON ELECTION! YOU ALL SAID I WAS CRAZY, BUT HERE'S THE PROOF! WAKE UP LIFEHACKS-EEPLE!
@Frank It's also the only one I've seen where even non-citizens had guttural reactions to one candidate or the other. We have a long way to go as a country. But that doesn't mean the response has to be full 1984.
@Yuuki well you need a place to store all the crap you keep finding and some people find it hard to explore more if they can't take their crap with them
Base-building implies finding a place (which feeds into exploration, sure) and then settling down and not journeying far from that place (which defeats the theme of exploration somewhat).
Sure, but then don't market your game as exploration-focused.
E:D suffered from kinda the same problems as NMS on release but 1) it wasn't buggy as f--k and 2) they marketed it as a space sim and not an exploration game.
what i find exciting is finding someone new who i can sell stuff to and go "here is my fleet of ships filled with all the rnadom shit i've picked up. how much can i dump on you and how much will you pay me to stop dumping on you"
The draw was exploration. The issue is that exploration is only fun when there's something to do once you get there. Fight a lizard man, get seduced by variously hued people of your favored gender. You know, the basics.
@Yuuki Seeing as how the whole film is a pretty big play on Europeans coming to North America and screwing over the natives, I don't know how they could have made it any more obvious.
If it only exists in large amounts on a planet so far away that you can't commercially mine it due to a few dozen blue men being in the way, "unobtainium" is more correct than "GuyWhoHadNothingToDoWithThisElement'sDiscoveryium"
@Wipqozn they made long war for xcom2? i thought it was set to long war by default

@GodEmperorDune THe plot of Interstellar had holes you could drive a truck through, so we'll be okay because I think we're collectively less pants on head
@Frank which season was it where they discovered a new planet a sun and some of the people on the ship wanted to stay on the planet thinking the aliens who made the planet and sun might come back? that was the last episode i ever saw of it on TV
user15026
Dear iTunes how do I tell you I really don'tr want you to download those episodes of DS9
though they do this resolve everything in the last few minutes but then crazy plot twist cliffhanger last 30 seconds that frustrates me in pretty much every episode
user15026
(every time I launch it after I restart it thinks THIS TIME THEY WANT THE EPISODES)
@GodEmperorDune seems like typical Military VS Civilian Space Drama to me, the only thing remotely stargate was that it had a stargate on board that dialed planets automatically....but that could be replaced with any other kind of transporter
@Frank and there was no real enemies. there was fish aliens who didn't like the ship but i don't think it ever explained why. i just assumed they hated the ancients.
oh man would it be a twist if those fish aliens were the Furlings we learned about way back at the start of the series
@GnomeSlice On second thought, level 2-7 has a global cycle and is terrible for precision speedrunning, the first level that has anything remotely bad in it.
if they did another Stargate i would like it to at least continue from Atlantis because you know, they have a Ancient City which can fly in space sitting in the New York river
@GodEmperorDune "None of our writing interns are capable of handling the complex lore of the Ancients and Ori. Let's kill them all off with an offscreen McGuffin."
Happy ending dictates that he found a way to digitize himself into Destiny so he can be cute with Ginn until the ship makes it to the other galaxy and they wake him up.
speaking on new series, i wonder if the SciFi Channel started doing Star Trek because of the new Star Trek Discovery in the works and they wanted to air it when it comes out.
because shit low budget movies like Lavalantula and Shark Movies can only be aired so many times before people realize they're being trolled
In games like Dustforce and Meatboy you can instantly see what your mistake was. In trials maybe you had to lean a little more or something and you can only figure it out by trying something else.
I haven't actually played it, so I should give one a chance, but it just doesn't look the same.
> I considered this volume as my starting point; the perversity of a corporation owning a shape—not just the design of the object—and also the fact that the volume is actually separate from the box. They’re owned independently from one another.
